Why it’s worth traveling for…
Kempinski’s first North American property, Kempinski Cancún eloquently blends European flair and elevated service with authentic Mexican decor and touches. Hugging the cerulean blue Caribbean Sea on its own stretch of sugar-white beach, the hotel is known for its two five-Diamond AAA restaurants, tranquil spa blending European and Mayan modalities, beachfront location, and spectacular sunrises. Every room faces the ocean.

Curated Experience
Arrive in late summer to early autumn for the best chance to view baby sea turtles hatching and being released into the sea by moonlight. Kempinski Cancún employs a vigilant sea turtle release program. Sunrises are spectacular too. Rise early to take in the view from your private balcony; then lounge by the dreamy palm-lined pool or under a private beach cabana. Shopping (Luxury Avenue and La Isla Shopping Village) are both within easy walking distance or take the complimentary car service.
